Attempts to free hostages still being held by Hamas in the Gaza Strip, as well as a two-state solution to the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, will also be discussed, the spokesman said.
The trip is Baerbock’s fourth to the region since the October 7 attacks mounted by Hamas from the Gaza Strip.
She will first meet Israeli President Isaac Herzog and newly appointed Foreign Minister Israel Katz. Talks are also planned with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki.
From there, Baerbock travels to Egypt to hold talks with Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukri. She is also to visit Lebanon.
